Background
• OFDMA numerology is optimized considering tradeoff between OFDMA gain and signaling overhead for 11ax
• In this submission, diversity gain is shown to discuss about feasibility for non-contiguous resource allocation

Need for Robust Transmission in OFMDA
• Multicast Trigger Frame is used in cascaded MU operation.• Given the small payload size of TR (compared with Data frames) it is likely to be allocated
with small RU (e.g. 26 or 52 RU).• The nature of multi-cast creates difficulty in obtaining frequency selective gain since it will be
difficult to choose a channel that has good link conditions for multiple STAs simultaneously.• The narrow RU size and random selection of frequency position makes the Trigger frame
susceptible to packet reception loss from channel deep fading. Currently, narrow RUs have no diversity gain.

Non-Contiguous Resource Allocation
• Diversity gain can be achieved by non-contiguous resource allocation spread over frequency
• Design complexity can be reduced by configuring some limitation on non-contiguous allocation• Keep the number of data/pilots tones identical to contiguous RUs• No introduction of new BCC/LDPC interleaver sizes

• Subblocks of a Non-contiguous RU is chosen to be equally spaced apart within 10/20/40/80 MHz.
• Number of pilots for a given RU is split equally between subblocks.• 1 pilot per subblock, 2 subblocks for 26 RU• 2 pilot per subbblock, 2 subblock for 52 RU• etc

Simulation SummaryDiversity Gain at 10% PER* 26 RU 52 RU 106 RU 242 RU
2 sub-blocks 1 ~ 3 dB 0.7 ~ 2 dB > 0.7 dB > 0.3 dB
4 sub-blocks - 3.5 dB(Appendix) > 1.5 dB > 0.7 dB
Slide 10
• With small RU (e.g. 26 RU and 52 RU), up to 3.5 dB gain can be achieved• As expected small RUs have the most diversity gain. Large RUs already span wide
enough to capture most of diversity gains.• Given hierarchical structure of OFDMA numerology, 4 sub-blocks may give scheduling
limitation (e.g. large fragmentation of the resources)
• Limiting the diversity mode to 26 and/or 52 RU may be sufficient.
Once 4 green colored sub-blocks of 26 tones are assigned for a STA, rest red colored 52/106/242 tones cannot be assigned to other STAs in OFDMA> Results in fragmentation of the resources242

Signaling Aspects of Non-Continuous RU
• Given that performance benefits of non-continuous RU is focused on 26/52 RU with at least 10MHz or more separation, we can define non-continuous RU allocations with the reserved states.• For example, only support non-continuous allocation for 26 and/or 52 RU• Excellent candidates for non-continuous RU are the central 26 RUs in
20/40/80 MHz.
• 8 bit RU allocation field in SIG-B only may to signal ~180 some states. This means there are additional ~70 states reserved.

• Two separate 26 RUs can be combined into a single non-continuous 52 RU.
• Two 13 tones of 26 RUs (i.e. half) can be combined into a single non-continuous 26 RU.• The other half can form another non-continuous 26 RU.

Straw Poll 1
Do you agree to add the following to the SFD?• Transmission diversity mode (i.e. non-continuous transmission)
shall be supported in 11ax. • Transmission diversity mode divides a single encoded packet in half and
maps to 13 + 13 (26 RU) or 26 + 26 (52 RU) tones, that are spaced apart in frequency.
• TBD whether only 26 RU, only 52 RU, or both 26 and 52 RU support transmit diversity mode.
• Y/N/ASlide 13
